Discussion - Set Aside Tabs and Warn on Close
I'm all for Microsoft services and the only thing that is preventing me from using the new Edge is the lack of "Set Tabs Aside".
I find "Collection" extremely lackluster and tedious to use. No one should have to watch a tutorial on how to use a browser feature.
In Edge legacy, It's simple and intuitive. Just one click save and restore. Also, when I restore a session from it deletes its self. For "Collection" I have to manually delete the session. It almost feels like a regression.
I like that I can set names for collection but I prefer that set tabs aside automatically dates each session. The date is a constant reminder that you need to take action of these old tabs thus managing clutter/hoarding
In response to your question:
• Ask users if they want to close all tabs when they close a browser window.
By default this was present in old Egde so Yes
• Bring the tab set aside feature from the current version of Microsoft Edge
Yes, this is a vital feature
Bill Gates once said “I choose a lazy person to do a hard job. Because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it.”
Collections is very useful for research or online shopping, but I agree, it is a terrible set aside tabs alternative. With collections, it's more like saving a link to an in-browser folder to access later, it doesn't actually move the tab. And then like you said, it is annoying to have to go manually delete the pages in the collection.
